    I really like the small size of this memory device. It is also very fast. I backup my entire All-in one computer on it. Western Digital is a brand I have trusted for many years.

    Unbelievable value for the price. This was easy to add to my computer. 2T is a lot of storage for something this size. The added security features add to this great value.

    This device is small and compact and holds more data then we thought we had. The price was the best after shopping and comparing with other external drives. Easily downloads data with very minimal instructions.

    Needed a storage device to hold Medical info for myself and this holds my whole file with plenty of room for more. Can fit almost any where, with easy access.

    When the last desk top crashed hard the Geek Squad was going to back up the old hard drives, so I was going to get a different portable hard drive... The tech advised this one which was a bit less money and more durable... Worked very well and now using as weekly backup...

    These External Drives Are Great for Storage and replay on PC's and TV's. However... once in a while you get one that is defective. Just return it and get another one or just a refund.

    My Choice for a Backup Drive

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this drive to use for backing up my primary system and assorted other files. I was able to partition it, install a Linux system of its own on it, boot-up the system installed on it, and backup everything to it from within that system all without any problems. It did seem to get a bit warmer than I thought it would during the initial backup process, but everything went smoothly and it looks like all the data is there. Western Digital has been my go-to drive brand for many a year now, with the only failure in that time being caused by me, so I'm expecting this drive to function well and last for a good while

    I needed portable backup with lots of memory and this is perfect. It holds everything I needed to back up with room to spare, it's easily portable and fits nicely in even a smaller handbag.

    Small, silent and easy to use

    I was surprised by the size of this portable drive, it is much smaller than my previous WD My Passport. I use it for Time Machine backups on my macbook pro, so I can't attest to its speed of writing/reading, since I don't care much. I did notice that the first backup (500GB) took a while, but other than that it's silent and works well in the background. I can travel with it due to how flat it is, so that's another plus. Setting it up was easy. I plugged it on, opened Time Machine and selected the drive. Time machine required to format it in order to use it, but that didn't take long and in no time it was backing up.
